TRIBUTE FROM TRAINER

The Kings Of England have been associated with horse racing for 1,000 years, but of all the! Royal patrons none followed racing as extensive ly as King Edward, whose horses brought him nearly £500,000,

King George continued with the racing activities of his fa- ther. The bloodstock at Sandringham and the horses in training at Egerton House were bequeathed to King George by his father. Marsh, the trainer, wrote:-"I at all times found King George a most human and kindly man. I knew he was very fond of all animals, and of horses in particular, but I did not realise when he was Prince of Wales that he was so keen as he afterwards proved to be, or that his interest was so deep-rooted.

(By Geoffrey Simpson)

London, December 24.

ALTHOUT a word of warning the Amateur

Athletic Association yesterday took it upon themselves to explode the happy-go-lucky British habit of unpreparedness in sport.

Instead of sending Christmas cards to their crack performers. they sent them a warning to start getting into shape for the

A double income-tax demand or loss of the family turkey could not have given the athletes a bigger shock. For the Games are eight months away and whoever heard of Englishmen-get- ting ready for anything all that time ahead?
